First warning to Mourinho's team

The alarm bells are already ringing in the Spanish capital after Real Madrid tasted defeat for the first time this campaign. Traveling to Seville on Saturday evening to face Real Betis, Carlo Ancelotti's men carved out chance after chance, only to squander them with alarming regularity. Their wastefulness proved costly, as the hosts eventually landed the decisive blow, sealing a narrow 1-0 victory that sent shockwaves through the visiting camp.

For Manuel Pellegrini's side, the triumph carried an extra layer of sweetness. Two of Betis' key contributors on the night had very recent history with the opposition—Fran García and Dani Ceballos both made the switch from the Bernabéu to La Cartuja during the summer transfer window. Their involvement in such a statement victory over their former employers made the occasion all the more memorable for the Verdiblancos and their supporters.
